Ghosts - Halloween 3 - Carol Comes Back

 Okay, Ghosts this week was an interesting one. I hope they don't keep the Carol character around much and she gets sucked off quickly. But if she has to stick around, Pete isn't going to do well with that at all. So, the gist is, Carol died in the kitchen during a Halloween party. So now she's part of the property and can't leave. Poor Pete. I'm not a fan of Carol, let's face it.

And we find that Flower is in the bottom of well. When she was an owl, she must have fallen down there somehow, and poof gone. Or maybe she didn't get sucked off like we thought? She said she's been down in the well for a month and can't get out. So, who knows what's going on with that. I mean she might not have been sucked off at all. Interesting thought process.

Oh Ghosts, When You Lie You Get Burned

 Jay's sister's boyfriend/husband (?) says he can see ghosts. He can't. It's that simple. Eric is his name he's trying to pull one over on Jay's sister. He felt Jay's sister was getting bored with him so to spice things up, he told her that he can see ghosts.

They're planning on making the "curse" go away. I have a feeling this won't work out. Eric is willing to go all out to make it appear as though his curse is gone. Yeah, like that'll happen.

Sub plot, Issac and his partner, Nigel, are squabbling about getting a prenup. So, there's a bit of back and forth about that.

When you don't want to see ghosts anymore you fall down a flight of stairs. Yep, that's the only way to get out of it, and make the lie even worse when your girlfriend finds out the truth thanks to Jay and Sam. Good job guys! The truth is always the best to say.

Sass and his Power

So Sass can inject himself into dreams. That's his ghost power. Talk about fun! I hope they'll show more of it and him getting along with Jay in his dreams. It was a good episode.

I kind of miss flower. Let's face it, she was a fun character who got people high when they walked through her.

I have a feeling that the barn will have ghosts in it at some point. They're just...hiding at the moment? Maybe. It's possible they won't have any extra ghosts in the barn at all. There's always a possibility of that you know? Yeah.

Farscape I, ET

 I do believe I've found a favorite episode. For once we are considered the outsiders, the aliens. Talk about an interesting one. Love how they shocked Criteon out and he couldn't move. He's all uhhh I'll recover from this right? Fully? They just stare at him.

From the sounds of things this was actually the second episode not the seventh. Love how studios make the decision to air certain episodes before or after others instead of the order they're meant to air in. Kinda silly if you ask me.

I mean if you were writing a show, wouldn't you want it to air in the order that you created it? I can understand an episode like Star Trek where it's just an alien of the week and there's no order to any of it, but other shows need to have that right reserved.

I need to find a viewing order website for this show so I can watch them in the correct order. Yes I believe that would be helpful in my watching of this classic. Yeah I called it a classic, what are you going to do about it? Nothing. There's nothing you can do about it.

Trying to watch Farscape

So I bit back, I downloaded Farscape on Apple TV. The complete series including the Peacekeeper War movie. I've been trying to watch it now. I'm finding it difficult to get into for some reason. But I keep trying it out to see if I'll eventually enjoy it. I haven't a clue yet.

I am impressed by the makeup and the puppetry. So that's gotta say something about it.

That poor engineering gal stuck in engineering. Never leaving the ship. She hardly has any lines it would seem too. But to each their own I suppose.

It is interesting to see the crew trying to use human terminology. Woody vs willies etc. I don't think I have a favorite character yet. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I'm able to figure one out that I enjoy. They're all so alien to me. Figuratively and physically.

Like I said, I'm sure I'll figure it out.

Been Rewatching Star Trek Deep Space Nine

 I'm in Season Six, well the last episode of Season Six. I think this is my favorite season. But I don't have much to say about it, other than the fact that there are some dang good story lines in it. The first six episodes of the season are my favorite, the battle to retake Deep Space Nine and the story lines behind not being on the station. Personally, I think the entire season should have been off of the station. But well, I don't make the decisions on making the show. That's up to people who get paid a lot more than I do. Oh well, it all works out like it should.

I still get upset over the death of Jadzia Dax; she was my favorite Dax. I mean yeah Ezri did just fine in the role, but she wasn't really the Dax we needed. Oh well, that's just what it is I guess.

This season also introduced the character of Vic Fontane. He was the closest thing we got to a counselor on screen. He helped Odo and Kira get together. He helps Nog in Season Seven. There's so much he is able to do.

Another favorite episode of the season was The Sound of her Voice. I really enjoyed that episode.

We get a hint of things going on in the lives of the officers on the station. I'm sure the war took its toll against them all. I can't imagine war not doing that. It is what it is, war is ugly that much is certain. There's nothing you can do about it when it comes down to it.

Ghosts - Who Got Sucked off {spoilers}

 Just watched the season opener for Ghosts on CBS. Flower left the show. The show runners claim there was no bad blood between them, and she wasn't fired in any way or left because of differences. So that's a relief. I had an inkling that it would be her because she wasn't really showing up in the previews for the new season, till the very end. One promo didn't have her in it at all. So yeah, it was rather easily to guess who was leaving the show. But that's okay, they let you know who left rather quickly into the episode, so it doesn't really matter.

I keep wondering if they'll get some barn ghosts into the show at some point. That could be fun. Not exclusively of course because that would take away from the main characters. We can't have that. Having the basement ghosts all around this episode, kind of ruined the mood for me a little. I'm not a fan of the basement ghosts. But that's okay, they left by the end of the episode, in a cleaver in my opinion.

I enjoy the thought that Flower became the Owl in some kind of reincarnation form.

Next week we get to learn about someone's ghost power that we haven't heard about before, I guess. Should prove to be interesting.

My Shoes Are Too Tight

There's a line in B5 where Londo says something to the effect that his shoes are too tight but that is okay for he has forgotten how to dance. When asked about it by Vir not understanding the statement, Londo says nor should he.

The answer to the quote is simple. Don't ignore the things in life that are enjoyable. Before long you won't be able to dance and explore those things, your shoes will be too tight.

I'd like to think I'm like Vir not understanding the statement, but I think I know better. Life has become a burden at times and there's nothing I can do to get around it.

Why Is Television So Weird?

 Television is weird. I haven't had TV in a long time. I recently got cable. I know, cable of all things. I was relying on streaming services most of the time. But then football games came on and I couldn't watch the game on streaming, so I ended up getting cable. It made sense at the get go when I wanted to do that. Let's hope the prices don't increase. I'm sure they will though, who's to say what will happen. I'll just have to wait it out I suppose.

I forgot how commercials were. I'm used to ads. Which you can argue that ads and commercials are the same, they just have different names. Yeah they can be the same thing that much is for sure. I feel more anxious about commercials than I do ads. I'm not certain why that is, I just know that's what it is and that's what I'm dealing with.

Found some good shows to watch on cable though. Found some stations that have some old shows that I used to watch growing up. Oh yeah, I know what I'll be doing for sure.

So that's that, and with that it's all good.
